Scott Schuman from the SARTORIALIST on women who don’t want to be photographed:

“Older European women are very difficult. Older women, in general, say no all the time. They’re just very vain.

And girls who are pretty, who’ve always been pretty. Not models—like the prom queen. They’re like, ‘Oh my god my beauty is such a curse! Nooo!’They’re not really into fashion, because they’ve always been pretty. It doesn’t happen very often, because they rarely dress well.” [Fashionista]

"I take a lot of inspiration from the books, thank you notes, and other ephemera I’ve collected over the years. I couldn’t spend nine hours a day in the office without it." Nicole Phelps"Eu retiro muita inspiração de livros, notas de agradecimento, e pequenas coisas efêmeras que recolhi ao longo dos anos. É a única maneira de conseguir passar nove horas por dia no escritório." Nicole Phelps

"My favorite note on it came about a year ago from Nicolas Ghesquiere. In Style.com's review of his Spring 2012 Balenciaga show I wrote, 'The fashion set has long worshiped at the altar of Nicolas Ghesquiere,' so he signed his letter, 'Religiously yours.'"
